Imagine losing entire college teams/programs that have long traditions and history and have created many opportunities and served well… simply because the need to pay a bench player $1.5M or so across the board at many schools. Need to cap this insanity.
@GolfweekRingler It is really unfortunate for the current seniors. They got shafted with recruiting due to the covid dead period that lasted way too long. Didn't get to meet coaches, take visits, meet teammates etc... like normal recruits. Now they get shafted again.
@GolfweekRingler It’s crazy how 2022 class had no school visits , no coaches watching them compete and then competed for a roster spot against 5th year Covid guys as freshman . Now not to be grandfathered in when they have an age limit in place is sad.
Also a good time to remind people of the investment Justin Rose and his wife Kate have made in women’s mini-tour golf. During Covid they put on a bunch of one-day events with the winner getting 10,000. It was funded by the Rose’s and his sponsors. It is still going, with 5 events this year, and the events are played on some of the UK’s best courses. The developmental system in women’s golf has improved but it needs so much more, really awesome that Justin and Kate invest in making it better.
I would add that on Drive, Chip and Putt day, the example of Asterisk Talley in defeat is a good one to show your kids!
